'Fluke' Ousts Gal Golfer
CLEVELAND. Aug. 14.-
Pretty Polly Riley of Fort Worth.
Texas, wished tonight she'd
"stuck to golf and never taken
tap the game of pool" during off
hours at the women's western
amateur golf championship tour
nament here. For Polly pushed
la match-winning putt for her
opponent In the tourneys second
round today - - a putt that look
ed more like good pocket bil
liard shot than a golf stroke and
practically staked her opponent,
lt-year-old Mary JHcMlllla of
Green Bay, Wis to s one-up
victory.
It happened on the par-five
ICth hole. Miss MrMillin's ball
was lying a scant eight Inches
from the cup. Polly's wss eight
feet away.
She sighted carefully and put
ted. The ball curled unexpect
edly, nicked Mary's ball on the
aide, like a cut-shot In pool, and
nudged It in. It was an eagle
three for Mary, who halved the
nest two holes with Polly and
emerged with a one-up victory.
Mary's victory puts her In the
quarter-finals tomorrow against
one of the tourney's two top-
heavy favorites - - Louise Suggs
of IJthia Springs. a.
of the Im-sI v. t striri hoisc.
